Ross

I believe the answer is:

aboard

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'on a plane' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'commercial hedging for pig' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'pig' could be 'boar' (male pig) and 'boar' is found within the answer.
'commercial' could be 'ad' (abbreviation for advertisement) and 'ad' is present in the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for aboard that I've seen before include "on deck" , "at sea, say?" , "On vessel or vehicle" , "in a car" , "On an aircraft" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
